If I'm spending $100+ for dinner .. I expect:
Go *************.
You pay the price on the menu for the food. You tip for service. If I'm tipping more then 10% I'm getting above average service. All those things I listed .. are part of a waiters/waitresses job. Nothing more.
Order two bottles of mineral water, small timer. Specify a glass with ice & lime.

Mineral water is gross .. and we use lemon here, not lime.

what kind of restaurants do you go to that leave pitchers of water on the table? also, i would be embarrassed to leave a 10% tip, unless the service was just that bad.
Lot's do. We went to one of the nicest restaruants here after my convocation. $30-40/plate, and a 5 page wine menu, ranging from $50/bottle to hundreds. They had really funky water pitchers, was actually quite impressed with the water pitchers. Mind you .. there was a group of 10 of us or so, and all wanted water, so I donno if this a regular thing that they would do for a smaller group or not.

Saying you tip everyone 20% is fine, but don't kid yourself into thinking that waiters at more expensive restaurants some how deserve what becomes a huge disparity in the amount of tip they get.
BEAUTIFULLY and succinctly stated.
Yes they do. In a fine dining establishment a waiter makes their money on quality of service, mastering the pacing of the meal and having extensive food and wine knowledge. In a casual restaurant they make their money on quantity of service, slinging hash and getting people in and out as fast as possible. I would love to have you dine with important clients at a fine restaurant first with an excellent, well-trained waiter and then go back the next day and have the same meal with a ****** waiter and then see the difference.
